Camillus, NY - About 30 members of the Camillus Elks Lodge 2367, the Camillus Rotary Club and the Camillus Chamber of Commerce have raised $850 to benefit the opening of the first navigable, restored aqueduct on the Erie Canal.

Members of the organizations recently presented David and Elizabeth Beebe, of the Camillus Canal Society, a check for the amount raised, Tom Kinsella, esteemed leading knight of the Camillus Elks Lodge 2367, said in a news release.

They raised the money by holding an all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet, which 225 Camillus residents attended.
